The Dallas Cowboys have interest in hiring Deion Sanders as their next head coach. Sanders all but confirmed as much when he told ESPN about his conversation with Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, calling the opportunity “intriguing.

Sanders spent five standout seasons with the Cowboys from 1995 to 1999, leaving an indelible mark on the franchise during one of its most celebrated eras. A key figure in the Cowboys’ Super Bowl XXX triumph, Sanders’ electrifying play as both a cornerback and return specialist solidified his status as one of the NFL’s all-time greats.

Sanders reportedly would leave Colorado for the NFL if Jerry Jones wants the former Cowboys star to become Dallas' next head coach.
